A custom bag

[ped]

Hi guys

OK I admit I'm a bit of a bag fiend. Recently I bought a nice leather bag from Ted Baker and I was worried that my camera wouldn't fit.

I made a custom foam insert to hold my two most used cameras, my R-D1 and a Polaroid (though I can carry something different instead the foam is cut to hold it securely)

It's very secure and I put a 'lens wrap' over both which allows me to dump bits on top but access the cameras by folding back the cloth. Very quick and easy.

The front pockets hold a spare batt and mem card, some flashbard for the polaroid, my notebook for work and an ND filter for the R-D1

Cheers

Well, I'd say it all fits fine! What keeps the RD-1 from falling over backwards, in the 2nd photo?

Nice Leather bag!

Thanks. It's just balanced in that picture, when the whole 'rig' is in the bag the sides hold everything in place. The lens block is a little taller than it needs to be so the camera doesn't roll forwards towards the middle of the bag. It's very secure!
